what is this like compared to the Sea to summit's eVent dry compression sack. It looks like both bags would be pretty similar, I am just curious about the way this bag has the compression straps attached to the bag top rather than have the compression straps wrap around the bag as a whole (like sea to summit's compression sacks do)

Hey there - I like the OR AirPurge. It is burlier, and the compression works great. The orange band around the bottom is actually a Gore membrane, so the air purge works really well and it is completely dry. Also, OR's warranty can't be beat: "Infinite Guaranty." No matter what, OR will take care of you!

Not quite as nice as the Sea to Summit in my opinion, although a little burlier. The strap wrapping of the OR does not pose a problem for compression at all, both this and the STS work well for the intended purpose, but I'd get the STS because of the lighter weight.
